Teaching activities
- 100% teaching duties in Moscow State University until 1992 and in Le Mans University in 1997-2007.
- 34% in 2008-2018 (Senior Member of the Institute of French Universities).
- 50% in 2019-2021 (delegation to CNRS).
- 100% teaching duties in 2022-2026
I am teaching for the Master students the lectures from the following list:
- “Ultrafast phenomena and optoacoustics”, “Nonlinear acoustics”, “Acousto-optics and its applications”,
- “Optoacoustics and its applications”, « Acoustic waves ».
In 2022 I prepared 24 hours of online annual lectures to promote photoacoustics and its applications for the multidisciplinary PhD students from two different PhD Schools (ED-SIS and ED-3MG) and several different Universities/Schools (Universities of Le Mans, Anger, Nantes, Central School of Nantes (ECN) and University Gustave Eiffel). In 2024 I extended these lectures to 32 hours.
